Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Microsoft AZ-900 certification?

AZ-900, officially Microsoft Azure Fundamentals, is an entry-level cloud certification from Microsoft. It validates that you understand core cloud concepts, the main Azure services, Azure pricing and support, and the basics of governance, privacy, and compliance in Azure. It's the most popular starting point for anyone getting into the Microsoft cloud ecosystem.

Who should take the AZ-900 practice test and the real exam?

AZ-900 is a great fit for students, career switchers, sales and marketing folks who work with cloud products, project managers, and technical people who are new to Azure. You don't need a deep engineering background. If you can explain what the cloud is to a friend and you want a credential to back that up, this one's for you.

Are there any prerequisites for AZ-900?

No formal prerequisites. Microsoft designed AZ-900 as a true fundamentals exam, so you can register and sit for it with zero Azure experience. That said, a little hands-on time in the Azure portal and some general tech awareness will make the material click much faster.

What's the exam format and how long is it?

Expect around 40 to 60 questions in a mix of formats -- multiple choice, multiple response, drag-and-drop, and occasionally short case studies. You get roughly 45 minutes of exam time with about 85 minutes of total seat time once you factor in the intro, survey, and check-in steps.

What score do I need to pass AZ-900?

You need 700 out of 1000 to pass. Microsoft uses a scaled score, so it's not a straight percentage of questions right. Some questions carry more weight than others, and unanswered questions count as wrong. Aim to get comfortable across every objective rather than mastering just one area.

How much does the AZ-900 exam cost?

The standard price is $99 USD in most regions, though the exact amount varies by country. Students can often get a 50% discount through Microsoft Learn student offers, and you'll sometimes see free exam vouchers tied to Microsoft Ignite, virtual training days, or other promotional events.

Does the AZ-900 certification expire?

Nope -- AZ-900 does not expire. Unlike role-based Azure certifications (AZ-104, AZ-204, and friends) which need yearly free renewal assessments, the fundamentals certs are valid for life once you pass. That makes it a pretty low-maintenance credential to keep on your resume.

What certifications should I pursue after AZ-900?

It depends on the direction you want to go. For administrators, AZ-104 (Azure Administrator Associate) is the natural next step. Developers usually move on to AZ-204. If security interests you, look at SC-900 followed by SC-200 or AZ-500. Data folks often branch into DP-900 and then DP-203 or DP-300.

How long does it take to study for AZ-900?

Most people are ready in 2 to 4 weeks of part-time study -- think an hour a day or a few longer sessions on weekends. If you already work in IT, you might be ready in a week. Mix Microsoft Learn's free learning paths with practice questions like the ones on this page, and you'll walk in feeling prepared.
